Chapter 162 The asset allocation of Victor Foundation (monthly ticket 1000 plus more updates)

The fragrance of tea is curling up and lingering.

Tang Yuan held the tea cup and drank slowly. After Danny Grant's narration for half an hour, he had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

Victor Grant was born in a British aristocratic family in 1905. He received a good education since childhood and enjoyed a privileged and prosperous life. However, with the outbreak of World War I, the entire Europe became a meat grinding ground.

During the war, Victor Grant's family declined rapidly, and his father failed to recover. In the fourth year after the end of World War I, he fell ill and passed away. His father's departure had a great impact on Victor Grant's mother. The blow was devastating, and he passed away within a few years.

The death of his parents one after another, coupled with the family's financial difficulties, made the young Victor Grant grow up quickly. Later, he sold all his family property and went to California alone to start over.

At that time, it coincided with the American Gold Rush and the booming industrial development period. Victor Grant grew up in an aristocratic family. Under the influence of his childhood, he was very clear about many business logics and principles. In addition, he was extremely intelligent and courageous. Being resourceful, rational and decisive, his business in the United States soon began to improve.

In 1931, World War II broke out.

During this long period of global war, the global situation was changing, and risks and opportunities coexisted. Victor Grant relied on his keen business sense, and his personal wealth began to skyrocket. By the end of World War II in 1945, Victor Grant Grant's personal wealth is enough to rank among the top five richest people in California.

With this wealth as the foundation, in the next few decades, Victor Grant will be steady and his wealth will continue to expand. However, everyone has everyone's troubles. Even Victor Grant, who has tens of billions of assets, also has his own problems. The trouble is that he has fertility problems.

For decades, Victor Grant had sown seeds everywhere, but they never bloomed. Occasionally, a few flowers bloomed, but women with ulterior motives borrowed the seeds to blow up their beards. After several times in succession, Victor Grant couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

However, Youdao deliberately planted flowers but failed to bloom, but unintentionally planted willows to create shade. When Victor Grant was 60 years old, during a drunken job, Victor Grant unexpectedly succeeded in sowing seeds, and he also had a son.

After the child was born, because Victor Grant had been defrauded several times before, Victor Grant immediately used the most advanced medical methods at the time to conduct several paternity tests. The final results made Victor Grant extremely happy. mad.

After decades of hard work, he finally had an heir. From then on, Victor Grant gave all his energy and love to this child. Even if the child had no interest in business when he grew up, he only liked to travel around the world and explore. Victor Grant Grant never stopped him in the slightest.

It was against this background that the Victor Foundation was established by Victor Grant. At first, he only donated half of his assets to the Victor Foundation. However, something unexpected happened. When Victor Grant was 90 years old, he worked hard to The son who had been raising him for 30 years had an accident while skydiving, and the result was that he died.

The white-haired man gave the black-haired man a gift. One can imagine the grief in Victor Grant's heart. There is no greater sorrow than the death of his heart. In despair, Victor Grant directly donated all his assets to the Victor Foundation, but in Victor ·When Grant was desperate, an unexpected news surprised and delighted him.

When his son Alex Grant was traveling around the world, a woman gave birth to a son for him. After learning the news, Victor Grant immediately used all his strength to find the whereabouts of this grandson as soon as possible. .

"After the old master found the child, he did not ask anyone to bring the child to the United States, because at that time his body was already exhausted and he knew that he would not die soon, so he chose to hide the child. stand up."

"There is an old saying in China that a man is not guilty of the crime of harboring a jade. If a child who is still in his infancy is allowed to inherit the huge assets of his old master, after this news is spread, it will definitely attract countless wolves, tigers and leopards. I want to take a big bite of this piece of fat."

"Finally, the old master made a will before he died, and then sealed the will at the headquarters of Morgan Bank, and set a 20-year sealing period. After we opened the will five days ago, we obtained your personal information. So I immediately flew over from the United States."

When Danny Grant said this, he looked a little excited: "My young master, you are the last bloodline of the Grant family. Your real surname should be Grant!"

"Forehead……"

Facing the slightly excited Danny Grant, Tang Yuan blinked, feeling a little speechless. He really didn't expect that the system would take care of him.

What kind of behavior is this?
Isn't this just the stealing behavior of the sixth child?

But in the blink of an eye, the other person asked him to pretend to be a grandson, and even changed his surname, and even his bloodline was no longer pure.

Ok……

Money is hard to earn and shit is hard to eat.

After all, they have hundreds of billions of assets, so if you feel a little wronged, just be a little wronged.

Thoughts were swirling in Tang Yuan's mind, but he remained calm on the surface. After Danny Grant finished speaking, he nodded slightly and said softly: "Uncle Danny, you have worked hard over the years."

Tang Yuan's light words directly penetrated the softest part of Danny Grant's heart, which reminded him of the appearance of Alex Grant, the son of his old master, when he was young.

"Uncle Danny!"

"Uncle Danny!"

"Uncle Danny!"

……

The calls seemed to be in my ears.

Danny Grant was unmarried and had no children in his life, so he watched Alex Grant grow up with his own eyes. The feelings accumulated over decades cannot be expressed in words.

Danny Grant stared at Tang Yuan blankly, with mixed feelings for a moment. "Uncle Danny?"

Tang Yuan saw that the other party was a little distracted, so he called out softly again.

"Sorry, I remembered some past events."

After Danny Grant came back to his senses, he couldn't help showing a little apology. Then he took the black briefcase from Oleg Kotov: "Little master, we are here not only for you. I have brought the appointment letter of the chairman of the Victor Foundation, as well as all the certificates of assets held by our Victor Foundation, so that you can have a comprehensive understanding of the Victor Foundation."

"Ok."

When Tang Yuan heard this, he suddenly became more energetic.

According to the introduction of system rewards, the assets held by the Victor Foundation are as high as 150 billion U.S. dollars. Naturally, such a huge asset cannot exist in the form of cash, so the assets held by the Victor Foundation must be diverse.

In fact, Danny Grant's next introduction proved that Tang Yuan's guess was correct.

The assets held by the Victor Foundation are roughly divided into five aspects.

The first aspect is real estate investment, which accounts for 40% of the total assets of the Victor Foundation.Since the 70s, the Victor Foundation has begun investing heavily in real estate around the world, including castles in Europe, office buildings in Manhattan, New York, apartments in Tokyo, Japan, ocean-view mansions in the Hawaiian Islands, independent islands in the Maldives, and manors in New Zealand. Wait, the Victor Foundation is involved in everything from luxury homes, villas, manors to office buildings, apartments, and private islands. In addition, the Victor Foundation also holds land property rights in core areas of first-tier cities in many countries around the world. .

The total value of these properties alone is as high as 60 billion US dollars. However, according to Tang Yuan's estimation, the actual value of these properties should be more than 60 billion US dollars, because the value of these properties has always been increasing with the continuous development of the global economy. In a state of constant value-adding.

Tang Yuan just took a rough look at the locations of these properties. Most of them are in the core areas of first-tier cities. With real estate resources like this, unless the country suddenly declines, there is basically no possibility of losing money.

As the world's second largest economy, China is naturally covered by the Victor Foundation's real estate investment scope. However, since China's land property rights are not permanent, it accounts for a relatively small proportion of the Victor Foundation's investments, and it is mainly Concentrated in six cities: Yanjing, Zhonghai, Yangcheng, Pengcheng, Gangcheng and Aocheng.

The second aspect is financial investment, which accounts for 30% of the total assets of the Victor Foundation, with a total value of nearly 50 billion US dollars.The main scope of financial investment includes financial projects such as private equity funds, stocks, bonds, gold, foreign exchange, and venture capital. According to the details just handed over by Danny Grant, Tang Yuan discovered that the Victor Foundation holds the original shares of a large number of American technology companies. , such as Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Oracle, Facebook, Tesla, etc. Although each company only has a small part and can only be regarded as an insignificant minority shareholder at most, it is enough to be called a minority shareholder. It's so precious.

The third aspect is gold investment, which accounts for 15% of the total assets of the Victor Foundation, with a total value of nearly 20 billion US dollars.This part of gold is completely different from the gold in financial investment above. Gold in financial investment is an extended financial product with gold as its core, similar to gold stocks, gold funds, and gold options.

However, the gold investment we are talking about now is all real gold that can be seen and touched. A total of 20 tons of gold worth 30 billion US dollars has been stored in batches by the Victor Foundation at the headquarters of Morgan Bank. Citibank headquarters, Royal Bank of Scotland headquarters, Spanish National Bank, Bank of China and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.

For the Victor Foundation, these 30 tons of gold are strategic reserve funds to prevent one day, if war breaks out again around the world, causing most of the Victor Foundation's industries to decline. With these gold backings, we can The Victor Foundation has a chance to start over, so this part of the funds has never been misappropriated since the establishment of the Victor Foundation.

In fact, in the past few decades, the total value of these 30 tons of gold has increased more than ten times. As an item linked to global currencies, there is absolutely no doubt about the ability of gold to maintain its value.

The fourth aspect is philanthropic investment, which accounts for 10% of the total assets of the Victor Foundation, with a total value of nearly 15 billion US dollars.According to the relevant laws and regulations of American foundations, any foundation must spend 5% of its total assets for charity or public welfare every year in order to continue to maintain the tax-free rights enjoyed by the foundation.

Regarding this provision, the Victor Foundation has always maintained very well. It has been investing in the field of education for decades and has been able to maintain a very good rate of return every year and can basically maintain a balance of payments.

Over the decades, many students who have been funded by the Victor Foundation are now leaders in their industries. Among them are financiers, politicians, military officers, scientists, and educators. Supporting outstanding students, the Victor Foundation's funding is often extended for a long time, helping them in their future life and work at the right time.

In addition, the Victor Foundation has jointly carried out many experimental projects with many famous schools in California for decades. The famous schools provide people and venues, and the Victor Foundation provides funds. When the experimental projects have results, the Victor Foundation will use other funds. The company will buy them out at a low price for the first time, and then use these achievements for commercial purposes, thus forming a virtuous capital cycle.

The last aspect is cash, which accounts for only 5% of the total assets of the Victor Foundation, with a total value of nearly 10 billion US dollars.On weekdays, it is mainly used for the daily expenses of the Victor Foundation, such as employee salaries, vehicle maintenance, business consulting, etc. The supplement of this part of the funds usually comes from financial investment.

The above five aspects are the entire asset allocation of the Victor Foundation. It took Tang Yuan two hours to understand these asset allocations in detail, which shows how huge the scale of assets controlled by the Victor Foundation is.

By the time Tang Yuan finished understanding all these asset allocations, it was almost afternoon.

"Little Master, according to the content of the old master's will, you are the only beneficiary of our Victor Foundation. Later, you will need to sign some legal documents. After you sign these legal documents, the entire Victor Foundation will officially belong to You own it, and then you can mobilize all the assets of the Victor Foundation at will."

As Danny Grant spoke, he took out another document from the black briefcase and pushed it in front of Tang Yuan.

This is a legal contract translated into Chinese and English. The main content is roughly the donation of assets. The donor is Victor Grant, and the recipient is Tang Yuan.

After Tang Yuan picked up the document, he did not sign it immediately. Instead, he read it carefully from beginning to end before signing his name and fingerprinting behind the recipient.

With the signing of this legal document, it means that the entire Victor Foundation is now in the hands of Tang Yuan, which means that all the assets owned by the Victor Foundation will be exclusively owned by Tang Yuan.

"call……"

Tang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, slowly closed the pen cap in his hand, and then turned his attention to the two of them: "Uncle Danny, Secretary-General Oleg, my chef has prepared lunch, we will eat and chat later. good?"

"it is good."

Danny Grant responded with a smile, and then the three of them stood up and moved towards the restaurant...
